Pokolbin is nestled in the famous Hunter Valley wine region, just one hour from Newcastle Airport and two hours from Sydney. Private car transfers can be arranged or for those groups with limited time, a charter helicopter transfer to and from Newcastle and Sydney Airports is available.

Perfectly positioned to explore the traditional cellar doors and vineyards of the Hunter, Spicers Guesthouse is the quintessential relaxed luxury escape. This reborn Hunter Valley institution embraces a classic yet contemporary design, drawing inspiration from the natural colour palette of the surrounding landscape. Numerous public and private spaces make Spicers Guesthouse the perfect venue for an intimate dinner, or an exclusive use event.

The 45 thoughtfully appointed rooms and stand-alone four bedroom cottage feature a neutral palette of timber and stone, interwoven by rich ink tones and subtle accents inspired by the natural colours of the Hunter Valley. Rooms are situated within three wings - Hunter, Valley and Garden - each with a guest lounge. Ground floor rooms open onto a terrace, while first floor rooms provide elevated views of the property and bushland.  The guest rooms feature appointments such as Bose sound systems and Nespresso coffee machines. The four bedroom stand alone cottage features a full kitchen, dining and lounge area with a generous wrap-around veranda. Overlooking a private garden, the cottage is located just a short walk to the central facilities and is the ideal location for a more exclusive stay.

éRemo offers a modern Italian menu thoughtfully created by a talented team. It wouldn’t be the Hunter Valley without a comprehensive wine list, including some of the region’s best vintages. Dine in the restaurant, or on our alfresco terrace and take in the views over the surrounding areas.

Originally the meeting place for local wine makers, Spicers pays homage to this history preserving the welcoming spirit of the original Guest House, making it the ideal location to discover new ideas. Perfect for medium-sized events, the retreat offers a variety of spaces featuring an abundance of natural light.
